Does Ealing planning policy restrict a building regulations package?

How designation changes a Ealing building regulations package: Ealing Council maintains 30 conservation areas, including Hanwell, Ealing Broadway, Pitshanger. Inside any of them a Ealing building regulations package cannot rely on permitted development, and the route becomes a £548 householder application determined in 8 weeks rather than a £249 prior approval in 6 weeks. Hanwell sets the tone for Ealing casework.

Ealing and Article 4: Article 4 for HMOs in specific streets in Acton, Ealing and Southall. A building regulations package planned at a W3 address is checked against that direction first; Ealing Council publishes the Ealing extent, and the W3 line rarely follows the Ealing boundary you would expect.

What Ealing is built from: Victorian and Edwardian villas in Ealing central; 1930s semi-detached in Northolt and Hanwell; mansion blocks along main roads; Bedford Park is a listed Arts & Crafts garden suburb. Leafy outer-west London; Bedford Park conservation area has strict heritage controls; rest of borough generally permissive. That mix decides the building regulations package route in Ealing more than the postcode does, and it is what a Ealing Council case officer reads first. A householder application costs £548 paid to Ealing Council direct, with 8 weeks to a decision once validated.

• Hounslow — cross the Ealing boundary and Hounslow Council takes the building regulations package instead, applying 30 conservation areas of its own around W3. We re-price building regulations drawings at the Ealing edge because Hounslow policy and Ealing policy rarely align on building regulations package depth.
